"Miss Qiu Tang said that as long as I can do it, I will do my best." Meng Ling'er looked kind.

"Mother Meng, my adoptive mother died of illness, I have nothing to rely on, and I ask Mother Dream to take me in." Qiu Tang said sadly. She wants to enter the palace, but if she wants to enter the palace in her current capacity, she is afraid that it will not be enough to die a hundred times, Chen Zhong told her that she can come to Fengqi Pavilion to try her luck.

"Child," Meng Ling'er took Qiu Tang's hand, "I've wronged you." If you don't dislike it, stay it. To be a first- or second-class girl with me, I can't go hungry or freeze. ”

"Thank you, Mommy." Seeing that Meng Ling'er did not doubt that he should be happy, and the begonia pear blossoms bowed down with rain.

"You're tired of being here, aren't you?" Mu Lingyi came to death row in black, Li Xusong brought a chair and put it outside the prison door, and inside the cell were extremely agitated and restless death row inmates.

"Shut up!" The screams of the death row inmates made Mu Lingyi quite annoyed, and he couldn't help but roar. After calming everyone, the corners of Mu Lingyi's mouth hooked up an imperceptible smile, "Now there is an opportunity, not only can you be spared the death penalty, but also let you wear gold and silver, and enjoy endless glory and wealth." Would you like to? "Mu Lingyi wants to organize a dead guard here to resist the Qimu clan's coercion of him in the future.

"Who do you think you are? Lao Tzu's life is up to you! A voice of disdain erupted from among the death row inmates.

"I can't help it, let's wait and see." In the face of that disdainful voice of provocation, Mu Lingyi didn't care, "You guys now draw lots to decide the opponent, two by two, and those who win will have a chance to live." If you don't do anything, then I'm going to send you on your way now! Mu Lingyi briefly said the rules, and motioned to Li Xusong to hand over the prepared bamboo sticks, the end of the bamboo sticks inserted in the stick holder was tied with silk threads of different colors, and the opponent who drew the same color was the opponent. Your life-and-death opponent.

Hearing that there was a chance to live, the death row prisoners quickly drew lots with a skeptical attitude, and Li Xusong locked everyone in a small cell according to the color of the draw.

"How? Which of you came first? Seeing that everything was ready, Mu Lingyi leaned back in his chair and squinted his eyes at this group of outlaws.

"I'm coming!" A voice broke the air, and following the voice, a black-faced man was holding his opponent's neck in his hand.

"This is a rogue murderer in the previous dynasty, who killed people and sold goods, because the looted things have never been found, so they have not been executed until now." Li Xusong whispered a brief introduction to the black-faced man beside Mu Lingyi.

"Let's get started." Mu Lingyi nodded, and motioned to Li Xusong to take the two out of the small cell and bring them to the cell with a large space in front of him, "There is no time limit, whoever lives will be rewarded." ”

Before Mu Lingyi's words fell, the black-faced man waved his hand and threw the opponent on the wall of the cell, making a muffled sound, I don't know what the two of them had, the black-faced man didn't wait for the opponent to get up, strode over, waved his fist and smashed it down, seeing that the fist was about to go down, the black-faced man let out a miserable scream, and instantly bowed to the ground, at this time his opponent slowly got up, and everyone saw his appearance clearly, there were no outstanding features, a pair of eyes were vicious and people did not dare to look directly, although the body was small, but it was extremely strong, was thrown on the wall by the black-faced man, but there was no discomfort on his face, as if he was deliberately lying on the ground and waiting for the black-faced man to approach. Looking at the state of the black-faced man, this little man seems to have used the next three ways.

"This is a gangster from the previous dynasty, because he stood up for their boss and accidentally beat people to death, so he was locked up here, because they gave the silver, so he is still alive." Li Xusong said in a low voice.

"It's kind of interesting." Mu Lingyi smiled.

The little man walked in front of the black-faced man, and while he had not recovered from the pain, he quickly stretched out his fingers and thrust them into the eyes of the black-faced man, only to hear the black-faced man let out a more miserable cry than just now, and the two round and bloody eyeballs were completely pulled out by the little man, and thrown on the ground casually, the little man didn't even look at it, went around to the position of the black-faced man's head, added the black-faced man's head to the middle of his knees, and exerted force under his feet, the little man rose into the air, quickly turned around in the air, and only heard a click, The black-faced man's screams suddenly disappeared.

"Emperor Lao'er, can you talk and count?" The little man's fingertips were still dripping with blood, and he stood in front of Mu Lingyi.

"Li Xusong, take him down, have a good meal, and then change his clothes." Being recognized, Mu Lingyi was a little surprised, and then thought that this person had been in the rivers and lakes before, relying on observing words and feelings, so he did not pursue it, but ordered Li Xusong to stay and greet him.

Seeing that Li Xusong respectfully invited the little man out, and ordered the little eunuch waiting outside to take him to eat and change clothes, the rest of the prisoners on death row couldn't sit still, since there is a chance to live now, what does the life or death of the others count. For a while, the cell became noisy, and everyone was vying to be the next murderer.

"Master, you said, will Qiu Tang be in danger?" Yuchen sat under the window with Boss Gu and drank tea with a heavy heart.

"This child is very clever, I believe that she will turn evil into good fortune and become auspicious." Boss Gu sighed, "It's not early, let's go rest." ”

"Yes." Yuchen got up and left.

Maybe she shouldn't have told her all this. Boss Gu thought to himself and shook his head. But he couldn't help it, since he knew that Qiu Tang was Chen Kaiyun's daughter, and listened to her words that she wanted to live, Boss Gu couldn't let her face it alone. Now he only hoped that the kung fu that Huachen and Yuchen had taught her could help her.

"Holy Lord, everyone is here." In less than two hours, only half of the death row inmates on death row remained.

Looking at the dozen or so death row prisoners in front of him who had been cleaned and changed into new clothes, Mu Lingyi smiled: "Now make the last choice." Dead or alive, you choose. From now on, if you don't want to do anything for me, then you will be sent back to death row immediately. ”

"I'll wait for the future to be the head of the saint!" Without hesitation, the crowd knelt down and bowed.

"That's it. You don't have to do this set of courtesies in the future, you wear the clothes of a guard on weekdays, just practice with the martial artists in the palace, and you don't have to do anything else. Mu Lingyi nodded, and motioned for Li Xusong to bring a booklet, "This has all the records of your family and friends, if you dare to rebel in the future, you will be ruthless." ”

"Yes." Everyone looked at each other and had no choice but to respond.

"Queen Mother, I heard that the Holy Lord recently pardoned a group of death row prisoners." Qing Xing lowered her voice.

"Death row prisoners?" Zhang Wan stopped coaxing Ling Chen's hand, "What are you doing to pardon them?" ”

"The mouths of the people around the saint are very tight, and when they are in a hurry, they only say that the saint will amnesty the world after he ascends the throne, and the rest will not say more."

"Let him go. People always have to find something to do, otherwise something will happen sooner or later. It's better to send someone to keep an eye on it, and don't make too much trouble. By the way, I watched a little more in the past two days to see where the pardoned death row prisoners went. ”

"Yes."

"Why did you run back!" Xu Hanyun was so shocked that he almost threw the tea cup in his hand.

"The Holy God forgave me for my capital crime and ordered me to be an errand in the palace in the future, and this time I will also be rewarded by the Holy Lord, so that I can go back to my old master's house to visit." A man with a cross-faced face and eyes stood in front of Xu Hanyun with his hands arched.

This person's name is Lu Sheng, he used to be a nurse next to Xu Hanyun, and later in order to help Xu Hanyun solve his business opponents, he did all kinds of evil, and finally once he was planted in the hands of the government, he thought that Lu Sheng would betray Xu Hanyun, but Lu Sheng himself resisted all the crimes, Xu Hanyun couldn't bear it, and he made a point up and down, so he was left on death row. originally thought that Lu Sheng would be thrown on death row for the rest of his life, but when he suddenly saw it today, Xu Hanyun thought that Lu Sheng had betrayed him in order to get out of death row.

"Good, good, Holy Grace, and it is also your blessing." Xu Hanyun listened to Lu Sheng's words and found that he was thinking too much, and he couldn't help but be a little embarrassed.

"Lu Sheng can live to this day is also Xu Sanye's life for me to spend money on, Lu Sheng is toothless and unforgettable, Xu Sanye rest assured, in the future, anyone who can use my Lu Sheng, you can say, go up the knife mountain and go down to the sea of fire, Lu Sheng I will not give up!" Lu Sheng knelt down on one knee in front of Xu Hanyun.

"Lu Sheng, you and I are the master and servant, it is also fate, and now you have received the grace of heaven and served by the saint's side, which is also your creation. As the saying goes, a companion is like a tiger, and you should be careful in the future. Lu Sheng's words moved Xu Hanyun a lot, and he couldn't help but be moved to tell Lu Sheng again and again.

Lu Sheng wrote it down. I'm leaving. After that, Lu Sheng knelt on his knees, kowtowed to Xu Hanyun three times, and disappeared into the night without looking back.

"Third Master Xu, who was it just now?" The scene just now all fell in Lu Pengju's eyes.

"A former servant." Xu Hanyun's eyes were damp, he raised his hand to wipe his eyes, and called Lu Pengju into the house, the master and servant sat opposite each other, Xu Hanyun told Lu Pengju about Lu Sheng.

"Hurry up and get dressed, don't grind!" Meng Ling'er looked a little impatient. In the evening, Li Xusong sent a message, saying that Mu Lingyi was going to come to Fengqi Pavilion to listen to the music in the evening, Meng Ling'er hurriedly asked Qingyun to invite the first and second class girls out, dress up again, and ordered Qingyun to find a sedan chair and send back the benefactors who were originally listening to the music in Fengqi Pavilion.

"Mom." After a cup of tea, the girls all freshened up and dressed up, and stood in front of Meng Ling'er and bowed down.

"Good. Let's all go back to the house and wait. Meng Ling'er saw that the girls were ready, and a smile appeared on her face.

When the girls heard this, they went back to the house. Qiu Tang deliberately slowed down by half a step, fell behind, and quietly rubbed to Meng Ling'er's side: "Mother Meng, what's wrong today?" ”

"Shh Meng Ling'er was nervously silenced, her eyes looked around, and she reached out and pulled Qiu Tang into the room, "Someone will come to the palace later." ”

"In the palace?" Qiu Tang didn't know why, "Isn't it also the people in the palace who you asked Qingyun to send away?" ”

"It's different, it's not the same." Meng Ling'er laughed so much that her eyes were almost invisible, "Those are just courtiers in the court, and the ones who will come later are the saints who sit on the dragon chair." ”

"Holy come here?" Qiu Tang's eyes widened, he had never heard of the saint visiting the kiln.

"I'm not better here than other places, there is a reason why the name is Fengqilou, this is a place to choose folk women for the royal family, if you are loved by the saint, it is not impossible to directly take back the palace concubine."

"Oh......" Qiu Tang nodded thoughtfully. It turned out that what Chen Zhong said was true, and this was indeed a shortcut to enter the palace by himself.

"Okay, prepare well, with your appearance and talent, maybe you can really have a concubine day." Meng Ling'er saw Qiu Tang's cheeks flush inexplicably, and quipped, "When the time comes, the concubine will be sealed, but don't forget me." ”

"Dream mother rest assured." Qiu Tang blushed and bowed down.
